Abstract

Calamansi orange peel contains bioactive compounds and essential oils but has not been utilized and is only thrown away as waste. This research aims to determine the effect of adding maltodextrin in the drying process on the characteristics of calamansi orange peel and to obtain panelist acceptance of its use as a green tea flavor. The study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 1 factor, namely maltodextrin concentration (6%, 8%, 10%). Drying was carried out for 7 hours using an oven at 60 ⁰C. The organoleptic test was carried out by brewing 3 g of a mixture of green tea with calamansi peel powder in a ratio of 1:2 in 220 ml of hot water t a temperature of 85 ⁰C for 5 minutes. The results of the research showed that the calamansi peel powder produced had a water content of 1.41-3.41%, vitamin C of 58.67-108.53 (mg/100g), and a volatile reducing substance (VRS) content of 6.5 -12 meq. The panelists' highest level of preference for calamansi powder as a green tea flavor was obtained in the treatment with the addition of 10% maltodextrin in the range of liking to very liking

Abstract

This study explores consumer segmentation for smoked seafood in Indonesian e-commerce, aiming to identify distinct buyer groups and their preferences. The problem lies in the limited understanding of market segmentation and the absence of smoked tuna trade through e-commerce platforms in Indonesia, despite the country's significant tuna production capacity. The research categorizes different consumer segments by analyzing key factors shaping their purchasing decisions. Data were collected from 246 respondents who had purchased smoked tuna from Prigi Beach and had prior e-commerce experience. K-means clustering analysis was applied to classify respondents into two clusters based on their demographic characteristics, behaviors, and perceptions. The study observed three key behavioral variables: Perceived Social Norm (PSN), Perceived Relative Advantage (PRA), and Perceived Health Benefit (B). Cluster 1, comprising 53% of respondents, is characterized by younger, health-conscious individuals, predominantly female, with a higher frequency of purchasing through e-commerce. They perceive e-commerce as a faster, more cost effective option and show stronger intentions to buy smoked seafood due to its nutritional value, distinctive taste, halal certification, affordability, and convenience. In contrast, Cluster 2, accounting for 47% of respondents, has a more varied demographic and lower frequency of online purchases. The findings suggest that Cluster 1 presents a more promising target for producers. By focusing on this segment's preferences and leveraging digital platforms, businesses can optimize their marketing strategies, enhance consumer engagement, and expand market reach. These results highlight the potential of e-commerce as a transformative platform for the seafood industry, offering insights into consumer segmentation and strategic opportunities for market growth. Keywords: cluster; consumers; market potential; online platforms

Abstract

Various complementary food menus have been distributed to help parents who are confused about choosing their child's first food menu. The complementary food menu is usually made from rice flour which is a source of carbohydrates. The high consumption of rice currently encourages various food diversification efforts to avoid dependence on one commodity. Crackers that combine sorghum flour with soybean flour increase the protein content of crackers so that they can be an alternative nutritious complementary food for stunted toddlers. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect of high-protein cracker formulation with the addition of sorghum and soybean flour and the analysis of water, ash, fat, protein and carbohydrate content. The experimental design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) and a sample of five samples with two repetitions. Data analysis used the One-Way Anova test and Duncan's further test with a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that all formulas had significant differences based on the One-Way Anova test and had met the standard (SNI) for cracker quality which can be seen from the significance value. The best formulation with chemical test results is F3 with a protein content of 7.66%, fat content of 9.55%, ash content of 1.52%, water content of 3.7%, and carbohydrate content of 77.7%. Crackers products that combine sorghum flour with soybean flour increase the protein content of biscuits so that they can be an alternative nutritious complementary food for toddlers.

Abstract

Coffee production in Indonesia continues to grow along with the increasing demand for specialty coffee. One of the crucial stages in coffee processing is the roasting process, which requires close attention to the physical load and work posture of workers. This study evaluates the ergonomic risks associated with the coffee roasting process at Kedai Koffie Tandjoeng, a small-scale coffee business in Sumedang, Indonesia. Despite operating since 2015, the roasting process had never undergone a structured ergonomic assessment, even though the operator reported frequent discomfort, especially in the upper limbs and lower back. To assess these risks, this study used a combination of Cardiovascular Load (CVL), Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA), and Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) methods. The CVL result of 39.14% indicated a light to moderate physical workload, suggesting the need for workload management to prevent long-term fatigue. The RULA score of 5 and REBA score of 4 revealed moderate ergonomic risks, particularly in the upper arms and wrists during the lifting and pouring stages. Based on these findings, four recommendations were proposed: ergonomic training, the use of assistive tools (e.g., step stools), structured rest periods, and workstation layout adjustments. This study contributes to ergonomic research in the context of micro and small enterprises by applying an integrated assessment approach to a previously unassessed but physically demanding process. The results provide a practical foundation for future ergonomic interventions to reduce injury risks in small-scale coffee production environments.

Abstract

Rosemary contains compounds such as saponins, flavonoids, and tannins, which play a role in hair growth and scalp cleansing. Rosemary oil is widely used in the cosmetics industry due to its fresh aroma and benefits in improving blood circulation, which can support hair growth. Rosemary is more commonly used as a food seasoning and fragrance ingredient, but its potential in hair care products still needs further development. This study aims to obtain the quality of shampoo with the addition of rosemary essential oil according to SNI 8860:2020, determine the most preferred formulation based on overall acceptance testing at various concentrations (0%, 2%, 4%, and 6%), and identify the best formulation based on SNI and hedonic tests. The research method was carried out by adding variations in the concentration of rosemary essential oil in formulations X0 (0%), X1 (2%), X2 (4%), and X3 (6%) with two repetitions, with testing based on SNI 8860:2020 and hedonic testing using the Friedman-Conover method. The tests conducted included pH testing, Total Plate Count (TPC), Yeast and Mold Count (YMC), and hedonic tests with parameters such as color, aroma, texture, and comfort. The results showed that the pH values of the four formulations ranged from 6.35 to 6.55. The Total Plate Count values for all four formulations ranged from 5.426 × 10¹ to 7.319 × 10¹ CFU/ml. In the YMC test, all formulations showed negative results, indicating no yeast and mold growth. In the hedonic test, formulation X1 was the most preferred in terms of color and aroma, while formulation X3 was the most favored in terms of texture and comfort. Based on all test results, formulation X1 was concluded to be the best rosemary shampoo formulation.
